»The artist must forget the audience, the critics, the technique, everything but love for the music. Then, the music speaks.«

»All my life I wanted to play music with love to every member of the audience.«

»If I make a speech, I need a translator. But music does not need a translation. People understand me through the sound. That I think is very important. This is just one planet, like one family.«

»You must play for the love of music. Perfect technique is not as important as making music from the heart.«

»Musik formt das Bewußtsein, sie schafft in deiner Persönlichkeit eine ganz eigene Qualität.«
